Tartisan Nickel Corp. (CSE: TN,OTC:TTSRF) (OTCQB: TTSRF) (FSE: 8TA) (‘Tartisan’, or the ‘Company’) is pleased to provide an update on the Company’s flagship Kenbridge Nickel-Coppet-Cobalt Project, Sioux Narrows, Ontario. The drill program is designed to test the on strike and down dip potential for additional nickel sulphide mineralization and to enhance the size and grade of the Kenbridge Deposit.

A total of 2,700m of drilling has been completed to date. The first 3 drill targets have been completed (drill holes KB26-207, KB26-208 and KB26-209 outlined on Figure 1). Samples have been delivered to AGAT Labs in Thunder Bay for analysis. Assays are pending for hole KB26-209. The drill rig is currently drilling the 4th drill hole KB26-210. This hole is designed to be drilled below the existing shaft bottom to test for the depth extension to the deposit.

Reported in this release are the results from the 2nd infill drill hole KB26-208. Results from the hole confirm both A and B zones were intersected as outlined in Table 1 below. Zone A was intersected from 571.5m to 574.5m drill depth and returned 0.68% Ni, 0.28% Cu over 3.0 metres. Zone B was intersected from 580.5m to 591.5m drill depth. Results were 1.05% Ni, 0.33% Cu over 11.0 metres including 2.0 metres of 4.79% Ni, 1.25% Cu. Drill core intersection widths are estimated to be between 65 and 80% true width.

Qualified Person

The technical information in this news release has been prepared in accordance with Canadian regulatory requirements as set out in NI 43-101 and reviewed and approved by Dean MacEachern, P. Geo., an Independent Consultant to the Company and a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.

QA/QC

Sample QA/QC procedures for Tartisan have been designed to meet or exceed industry standards. Drill core is collected from the diamond drill and placed in sealed core trays for transport to on-site sampling and core cutting facilities. The core is logged and samples taken from 0.3m to a maximum sample length of 1.5m. The core samples are split with a diamond blade saw with continuous running water, half of the sample is sent for lab testing, and the remaining half core is left in the core box for record or further sampling. The core samples are bagged in heavy plastic bags with 6 samples being placed into a rice bag for transport to AGAT Laboratories in Thunder Bay, ON or Calgary, AB for assay. Samples are submitted in batches of 50. 100g blind certified reference materials (CRMs) from CDN Resources, as well as, duplicates and blank samples are systematically inserted by the Company into the sample stream with reference to the mineralization in the sampled rock and analyzed as part of the Company’s quality assurance/quality control protocol, as well, AGAT labs implements their own quality control testing by inserting their own CRMs and Blanks in the sample stream for accredited testing.

All drill core samples were prepped and analyzed at AGAT Laboratories in Thunder Bay, Ontario or shipped to Calgary for testing. An ISO/IEC 17025 2017 certified independent laboratory from organizations like the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), the Canadian Association for Laboratory Accreditation (CALA), ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB) and the American Association of Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA). They maintain accreditations across their facilities in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, Quebec and internationally.

NQ-diameter sawed half-core samples from the drilling program were securely sent by Tartisan Nickel Corp’s geologists to AGAT Laboratories Ltd. (AGAT), with sample preparation in Thunder Bay, Ontario, and analysis in Thunder Bay, Ontario & Calgary, Alberta. Samples were processed for Au, Pt and Pd analysis by 50-gram fire assay with ICP-OES finish and for four acid digestion, multi-element analysis by inductively coupled plasma & mass spectrometry (ICP OES + MS). AGAT sample preparation and laboratory analysis procedures conform to requirements of ISO/IEC Standard 17025 guidelines and meet the requirements under NI 43-101 and CIM best practice guidelines. AGAT Laboratories is independent of Tartisan Nickel Corp.

Samples were dried and crushed to 2 mm, from which a 250 g sub-sample split was then pulverized to 85% passing a 75 micron sieve. Following preparation, assays were determined by the ICP OES method. A 0.25 g aliquot of the prepared pulp was digested in a 4-acid solution consisting of hydrochloric, nitric, perchloric and hydrofluoric acids. 4-acid is a near total digest and only the most highly resistant minerals are not dissolved. The resulting solution was analyzed via ICP-MS and ICP-ES for 8 elements and was corrected for inter-element spectral interferences. Lower detection limits for this procedure are 0.01 ppm for nickel, 0.01 ppm for copper, 0.01 ppm for cobalt, 0.01 ppm for platinum, 0.01 ppm palladium, 0.01 ppm silver and 0.01 ppm for gold.

Samples with initial results beyond the upper detection limit of the ICP OES method were analyzed by (201-071) 4 acid digest – Metals Package, ICP-OES/ICP-MS finish (CGY). The thresholds are >1% for nickel, copper and cobalt. AGAT Laboratories employs internal quality control standards, duplicates and blank samples at set frequencies. Tartisan Nickel Corp. stores all its drilled core on-site and takes pride in its facilities and strives for excellence in its QA/QC procedures.

Standard Uranium Ltd. (TSXV: STND,OTC:STTDF) (OTCQB: STTDF) (FSE: 9SU0) (‘Standard Uranium’ or the ‘Company’)  is pleased to announce that drilling activities have commenced at the Company’s 12,364-hectare Corvo Uranium Project (‘Corvo’, or the ‘Project’) located near Wollaston Lake in northeastern Saskatchewan (Figure 1). Field crews arrived at the Project on February 6th and drilling commenced on schedule, February 9th.

The Project is currently under a three-year earn-in option agreement (the ‘Option Agreement‘) with Aventis Energy Inc. (CSE: AVE) (‘Aventis‘). Pursuant to the Option Agreement, Aventis has been granted an option (the ‘Option‘) to earn a 75% interest in the Project by funding CAD$6M in exploration expenditures over three years. The drill program will be funded by Aventis and operated by Standard Uranium.

Highlights:

• Drilling Underway: Drilling activities began on February 9, 2026. Approximately 2,500-3,000 metres are planned across eight (8) to ten (10) drill holes targeting shallow high-grade^* basement-hosted uranium mineralization, beginning with the Manhattan target area. The program is anticipated to span five (5) to six (6) weeks.

• Robust & Shallow Drill Targets: Drill plans comprise road accessible skid-supported diamond drilling focused on high-priority uranium targets refined by geophysical work completed by the Company in 2025, bolstered by recent prospecting and confirmation of strong radioactivity at surface (up to 8.10% U₃O₈ grab samples at Manhattan¹) within ideal uranium host rocks.

• Untapped Uranium Potential: One diamond drill will focus on high-priority target areas along prospective Xcite^TM electromagnetic (‘EM‘) corridors overlain by high-resolution ground gravity data with the proven exploration thesis of focusing on major conductor trends associated with cross-cutting faults and surficial radioactivity expressions.

• Fully Funded: Aventis Energy will fund 100% of the program to meet the year-one expenditure requirements under the Option.

‘The team and I are thrilled to announce that the drill is spinning on the Corvo project for the first time in more than 40 years, kicking off our winter exploration season,’ said Sean Hillacre, President & VP Exploration for the Company, ‘This program also marks the first drill holes ever at the Manhattan showing, which returned uranium grades up to 8.10% U₃O₈ in surface samples from our prospecting program in 2025.’

2026 Winter Drill Program

The Standard Uranium team arrived on site February 9, 2026, and diamond drilling on the first hole at Corvo in more than 40 years is currently underway. The winter program will comprise approximately 2,500 to 3,000 metres of drilling at high-priority target areas following completion of TDEM and ground gravity surveys, and geophysical modeling last year. Corvo covers an area of 12,364 hectares across 14 mineral claims, located along highway 905 on the eastern margin of the Athabasca Basin.

Target Selection for 2026 Drill Campaign

Targets were selected and prioritized through an iterative approach working in collaboration with Convolutions Geoscience Corporation. Recent prospecting and mapping across the Project outlined multiple outcrops of favourable uranium host-rocks, including radioactive metasediments and orthogneiss. Structural measurements and radioactivity mapping has further refined drill targets in the 2026 target areas.

Targets are ranked and prioritized based on geophysical signature, geological/structural setting, proximity to surficial uranium occurrences of interest, and the Company’s recent prospecting and mapping campaign.

About Standard Uranium (TSXV: STND,OTC:STTDF)

We find the fuel to power a clean energy future

Standard Uranium is a uranium exploration company and emerging project generator poised for discovery in one of the world’s premier uranium districts. The Company holds interest in over 241,652 acres (97,793 hectares) in the Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan, Canada. Since its establishment, Standard Uranium has focused on the identification, acquisition, and exploration of Athabasca-style uranium targets with a view to discovery and future development.

Standard Uranium’s Davidson River Project, in the southwest part of the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, comprises ten mineral claims over 30,737 hectares. Davidson River is highly prospective for basement-hosted uranium deposits due to its location along trend from recent high-grade uranium discoveries. However, owing to the large project size with multiple targets, it remains broadly under-tested by drilling. Recent intersections of wide, structurally deformed and strongly altered shear zones provide significant confidence in the exploration model and future success is expected.

Standard Uranium’s eastern Athabasca projects comprise over 53,166 hectares of prospective land holdings. The eastern basin projects are highly prospective for unconformity related and/or basement hosted uranium deposits based on historical uranium occurrences, recently identified geophysical anomalies, and location along trend from several high-grade uranium discoveries.

Standard Uranium’s Sun Dog project, in the northwest part of the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, is comprised of nine mineral claims over 19,603 hectares. The Sun Dog project is highly prospective for basement and unconformity hosted uranium deposits yet remains largely untested by sufficient drilling despite its location proximal to uranium discoveries in the area.

Toronto, Ontario – February 11, 2026 – TheNewswire – Laurion Mineral Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: LME | OTCQB: LMEFF | FSE: 5YD) (‘LAURION’ or the ‘Company’) reports assay results from drill holes LBX25-101 and LBX25-102 from the Company’s recent Fall diamond drilling program totalling 1,821 metres completed in 8 drill holes at the A-Zone/McLeod/CRK Zone at the Ishkōday Project, located in the Beardmore–Geraldton Greenstone Belt of north-western Ontario, approximately 220 kilometres northeast of Thunder Bay.

Drill holes LBX25-101 and LBX25-102 were planned as part of LAURION’s model-guided A-Zone program to test interpreted mineralized horizons and strengthen continuity across the northeastern portion of the zone. (See Image DDH Cross Section.) The drill holes were positioned to validate structural interpretations and increase confidence in zones where both historical drilling and more recent Company-led drill programs have identified broad anomalous gold mineralization with localized higher-grade intervals. The assay results provide additional technical data that will support the refinement of future targeting and improve predictability for the Company’s subsequent drill campaigns. (See Image of Drill Locations of Fall Diamond Drilling.)

‘We are advancing the A-Zone through disciplined, high-confidence drill targeting designed to create measurable project value,’ said Cynthia Le Sueur-Aquin, President and CEO of LAURION. ‘Our objective is to complete drilling that answers specific geological questions, strengthens continuity, and improves predictability — because better technical clarity today supports stronger outcomes tomorrow for our shareholders.’

Geological Context

Drill hole LBX25-101 is situated approximately 265 m southwest of LBX25-100, with LBX25-102 positioned an additional 335 m southwest, extending drill coverage along the interpreted A-Zone mineralized corridor into a sparsely drilled area. LBX25-101 was established as a step-back collar to test projected mineralized horizons and structural continuity beyond the denser drill grid. Targeting incorporated projected intercept positions from holes LBX22-055, LBX22-056, LBX22-056A, LBX22-057, and historic hole K56 to improve geological and structural constraint across this portion of the zone.

Drill hole LBX25-102 was collared adjacent to the access road approximately 1.0 km south of the River Road, located north of the McLeod Zone and southwest of drill hole LBX21-041, to support continued drill coverage along this portion of the interpreted mineralized trend. This collar location enabled efficient drill access while extending geological coverage into a less densely tested portion of the corridor.

NOTE: Intervals represent core length. The interval widths reported are down-hole widths. The true widths of the mineralized zones are not known at this time as there is insufficient information to determine the orientation of the mineralization.

Sampling and QA/QC Protocols

All drill core is transported and stored inside the core facility located at the Ishkōday Project in Greenstone, Ontario. LAURION employs an industry standard system of external standards, blanks and duplicates for all of its sampling, in addition to the QA/QC protocol employed by the laboratory. After logging, core samples were identified and then cut in half along core axis in the same building and then zip tied individually in plastic sample bags with a bar code. Approximately five or six of these individual bags were then stacked into a ‘rice’ white material bag and stored on a skid for final shipment to the laboratory. All core samples were shipped to the ALS facility in Thunder Bay, Ontario, which were then prepared by ALS Global Geochemistry in Thunder Bay and analyzed by ALS Global Analytical Lab in North Vancouver, British Columbia. Samples are processed by 4-acid digestion and analyzed by fire assay on 50 g pulps and ICP-AES (Inductively Coupled Plasma – Atomic Emission Spectroscopy). Over limit analyses are reprocessed with gravimetric finish. A total of 5% blanks and 5% standard are inserted randomly within all samples. 5% of the best assay result pulps were sent for re-assays. All QA/QC were verified, and no contamination or bias have been observed. The remaining half of the core, as well as the unsampled core, is stored in temporary core racks at the core logging facility in Beardmore and moved to the core storage facility at the Ishkōday Project. Note: QA/QC review of standards and duplicates indicates analytical results are reliable. One zinc standard adjacent to a high-grade zinc interval returned elevated values consistent with expected analytical behaviour following high-grade samples.

LAURION’s primary focus is the 100%-owned, district-scale Ishkōday Project, a 57 km² land package hosting gold-rich polymetallic mineralization. The Company is advancing Ishkōday through a disciplined, milestone-driven exploration strategy focused on strengthening geological confidence, defining structural continuity.

LAURION’s strategy is centered on deliberate value creation. The Company is prioritizing systematic technical advancement, integrated geological and structural modeling, and the evaluation of optional, non-dilutive pathways, including historical surface stockpile processing, that may support flexibility in LAURION’s exploration plans without diverting the Company’s focus from its core exploration objectives.

The Company’s overarching objective is to build project value before monetization, ensuring that any future strategic outcomes are supported by technical clarity, reduced execution risk, and demonstrated scale. While the Board remains attentive to strategic interest that may arise, LAURION is not driven by transaction timing. Instead, the Company is focused on advancing the Ishkōday Project in a manner that strengthens long-term shareholder value.

LAURION will continue to communicate updates through timely disclosure and will issue press releases in accordance with applicable securities laws should any material information arise.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / February 10, 2026 / Earthwise Minerals Corp. (CSE:WISE,OTC:HWKRF)(FSE:966) (‘Earthwise‘ or the ‘Company‘) is pleased to announce that it has completed its non-brokered private placement financing (the ‘Offering‘) announced January 30, 2026. The Company has raised gross proceeds of $601,804.49 by issuing a total of 17,194,414 non-flow through units (‘NFT Units’) at a price of $0.035 per unit.

The Company issued 17,194,414 NFT warrants in the Offering.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general working capital and exploration at the Iron Range Gold Project.
